New SpaceX Crew Walkway[edit]

Can anyone update the article with information and/or a picture of the new SpaceX Crew Walkway on Pad 39A? UnknownM1 (talk) 00:13, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Splitting out LC-39A and LC-39B to separate articles[edit]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

There is no objection on splitting. Therefore, it is clear that we should split the article as suggested by Jadebenn. --Soumya-8974 ^talk _contribs ^subpages 05:14, 18 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think both of these pads are notable enough to have their own articles. The content on this page could be replaced with a more condensed summary and a link to the newly-created main article. This would help avoid the issue of one section dominating over the others, as the section on LC-39A does now. – Jadebenn (talk · contribs · subpages) 22:37, 25 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have added split templates to the page and am now only seeking to split out LC-39A. – Jadebenn (talk · contribs · subpages) 18:52, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support splitting per nom. --Soumyabrata ^{stay at home} _{wash your hands} ^{to protect from coronavirus} 13:18, 22 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

NAB?[edit]

The small image showing the original layout of the pads has a caption near the VAB for "NAB", which appears to be two smaller buildings by Futch Cove. Anyone have any idea what these are/were? Maury Markowitz (talk) 16:52, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"Nuclear Assembly Building", where nuclear reactor power systems were planned to be installed. It was never built. ([1], [2], [3]). TJRC (talk) 21:19, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nice, thanks! I assume this was for the NERVA-related stages? Maury Markowitz (talk) 15:52, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm guessing so, based on the third reference, but I don't know much about that program. TJRC (talk) 21:38, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
